Hello! I made this account to post this thread.
A little background info, I've been homebrewing for roughly three months with two months prior or sidereading. I was recently diagnosed with cystic fibrosis related diabetes. Which sucks, because I racked and bottled my cyser about a week ago! :cross:
I've read up on the process of soda making (something I've wanted to do for a while now) and I'm of course curious as to whether it's alright to substitute sugar for something diabetic-friendly. Particularly, artificial sweeteners such as Splenda or Stevia. Also, if there would be anythings I should be worried about, such as unlisted sugar(s) or potentially high carbohydrates from soda extracts. (Looking at this one: http://www.homebrewing.org/Sarsaparilla-Soda-Extract_p_483.html# )
Thanks!
